Uprooted Palestinians are at the heart of the conflict in the M.E Palestinians uprooted by force of arms. Yet faced immense difficulties have survived, kept alive their history and culture, passed keys of family homes in occupied Palestine from one generation to the next.

Secondly, adheretotheprincipleofthesecularSyrianstate, as a core principle not subjectto debate.
It is clear that Syria Brotherhoodwouldreject the first condition; their declared concessions to IsraelintheGolan, is an integral partof the understanding withtheUnitedStates. The issueisnotjustaboutborderconcessions, but related tothesecurityofIsraelandtoensure USA interests, which representsthe cornerstoneoftheU.S.BrotherhoodAlliance.

It is noted that Washingtonsupported the BrotherhoodMohamedMorsiPresidentto imposeatheocraticdictatorshipconstitutionagainstthedemolitionoftunnels, andpreventingthesupplyofweapons into Gaza, andpreventingresistanceemanatingfrom Gaza.

The "Brotherhood", can't accept the second condition; because accepting it meansthelosing theleadershipintheSyrianpoliticalIslam, and alsolosing theiralliesin the sectarian TurkishGulf project.

The conditions are apainfulblowfor the Muslim Brotherhood; revealing theirinvolvementwith IsraelagainsttheinterestsofSyria, and expose themto thesecularoppositionforces.
Assad wants,rightfully, before any dialogue an agreement (decleration) confirming the Syrian national constants.Theseconstantsare:

No compromise on theterritoryofSyriafor IsraelorTurkey,

No compromise on the size and arming theSyrianArabArmy,

No comprise on Syria's sovereigntyand interestsin any of theprojects in the oil, gas, etc., and

Commitmentto secular State.

It is known thattheSyrianopposition coalitionled bytheMuslimBrotherhood, have accepted the US-IsraelTurkishterms namely:

Acceptance of Mandatory borders instead ofthe1967bordersin the Golan,

Acceptance of Turkish claims in theSyrian territory

Acceptance of reducing the size and arming of theSyrianarmyandlinkittotheWest,

Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi said on Saturday his country supported the Syrian revolution and that President Bashar al-Asasd's administration had no place in Syria's future.
Mursi said Egypt's priority was to halt the bloodshed and to work, with "Arab, regional and international support and consensus", for a political solution that would allow "the Syrian people to replace the current regime" with elected leaders.

"All of that while preserving the unity of Syria," Mursi, an Islamist, said during a televised speech to Egypt's Shura Council, or upper house of parliament. "There is no place for the current regime in the future of Syria."

Assad has been losing ground to rebels waging a 21-month-old uprising. Egyptians ousted their longtime authoritarian president, Hosni Mubarak, in a popular revolt in February 2011. Mursi won office in a free election earlier this year.

"The revolution of the Syrian people, which we support, will go forward, God willing, to realise its goals of freedom, dignity and social justice," Mursi added.(Reuters)

UN-Arab League envoy Lakhdar Brahimi put it simply: there are only two ways for Syria - a political process or hell. In other words, he agreed with the Russian position.

As for the opposition, it immediately declared that a non-negotiable precondition for any negotiations must be the departure of Assad (making any thinking person wonder what there would be left to negotiate at this point).

So we have the following dynamic: Assad agrees that the future of Syria should be decided upon in elections, and Assad agrees to negotiate without any pre-conditions. The opposition reject both the ballot and any negotiations.

I would say that by now only drooling idiots or fundamentally dishonest people could seriously lay the blame for the carnage taking place on Assad.

The residents of the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp in the Syrian capital have appealed to the international community to save them from dying gradual deaths.
In a message to international institutions, Yarmouk residents said many people, including children, are dying on a daily basis since the camp came under siege as a result of clashes between foreign-backed militants and members of the Palestinian revolutionary committees.

They said medical equipment, including oxygen supplies, are not allowed into the camp and that a number of patients have suffocated to death as a result.

The refugees also complained of lack of fuel and flour in the densely-populated camp. They have called for international humanitarian aids, including food and medicine, to save them from gradual death.

Some observers are likening Yarmouk to Gaza, and say while Palestinians there are being killed by Israel, those in Yarmouk are falling victim to attacks by al-Qaeda.

According to sources inside the camp, there are also deadly clashes between members of the terrorist Free Syrian Army and the al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front inside Yarmouk and that armed men affiliated to the al-Nusra Front have executed a number of Palestinian civilians in the refugee camp.
Yarmouk and the districts surrounding it have borne the brunt of the turmoil in Syria over the past months. In September, at least 20 people were killed after mortar shells fired by militants landed in the Palestinian refugee camp.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011. Many people, including large numbers of army and security personnel, have been killed in the turmoil.

The Syrian government says the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country, and there are reports that a very large number of the militants operating in the country are foreign nationals.

A hard-line Wahhabi cleric in Saudi Arabia has recently issued a special religious decree that permits the militants in Syria to engage in short-term marriages with Syrian women.

Sheikh Mohammed al-Arifi said that the marriages between the foreign-backed militants and Syrian women will satisfy the militants’ sexual desires and boost their determination in killing Syrians.

He added that the marriages, dubbed by him as “intercourse marriages,” can be with Syrian females as young as 14 years old.

He also promised “paradise” for those who marry the militants.

Arifi has issued similar decrees in the past in support of the violence in Syria.

He has also been organizing a fundraiser for the militant groups fighting Syrian government forces.

Only for an hour .. Jihad Marriage to overthrow the Syrian regime

I read the below fatwa in Arabic at the Syrian site DAM PRESS, I just saved it, because some readers would think its a Syrian propaganda. Today, being tweeted by Shaikh Mohamad Al-Arifi, I decided to puplish it, and remind the readers of UP, here and of deLiberation, that this wahabi shaikh and his likes are the reference for the British "Muslim" Activist, Laura Stuart,

"What do I want to see happen there? I want to see Islam rise there exactly as Sheik Arifi says in his talk on the video." Laura said - What About Syria?

When I read the Fatwa, I immediately remembered Laura, and her brother, Khalid Hamayreh, and their propaganda war on Syria, Iran and what Hamayreh called 'Shiits of Iblis". Hamayerh described the Shae temporary marriage a kindofprostitution. Back to the wahabi fatwa:

The fatwastatesthat Syria 'freedom' fightersagainsttheregime,unmarriedormarried but cannotmeettheirwives, may mary girls , 14 years and above, or widows and divorced women forshortperiodsnotexceedingfew hours to give the opportunitytoanotherfighterto do the same with the same girl/woman. The aim of the fatwa is toenablethefighters to get their "legitimateright" and thus raisetheirmoraleofcombat. Moreover, the Syria's Jihadis girls/women who follow the fatwa are entitled to go to Paradise.Back to the Shea temporary marrage, the marrage is allowed in certain case, provided, the girl, woman, can remarryonlyaftermakingsurethatsheisnotpregnant, if pregnant herson/daughter is entitled to get his/her share in the father's legacy.I will leave it to the readers to decide which one is prostitution?-----For better 'Jihad': Wed a 14 years old, have sex with her for hours & then let another Jihadi wed her ...

Field sources told al-Ahed News website that, "more than
40 militiamen from al-Tawheed Brigade surrendered themselves to the Syrian Army
in Aleppo after violent clashes between al-Qaeda-affiliated al-Nusra Front and
the so-called Free Syrian Army militiamen, which led to a huge number of killed
among both sides."The sources added that, "the militiamen who turned
themselves in where deployed on several battle points, including al-Sakhour,
al-Shaar, Karam al-Jabal, and Sheikh al-Khodor areas in
Aleppo."

Al-Ahed website learnt that the armed terrorist forces "tried to control
the last pebble that would obstruct their way in the Northern Countryside of
Aleppo, which included Meng Military Airport that witnessed the most violent of
clashes for months."

On a similar note, the Syrian Army targeted
terrorists' gatherings at the surrounding area of Wadi al-Dhef in Maaret
al-Nomaan, killing many of them and destroying their criminal tools.

Heavy losses were inflicted upon the so-called "Baba Amr" and
"al-Farouq" battalions, killing many of the terrorists, injuring others, and
destroying several cars which were equipped with heavy machineguns, SANA
reported on Sunday.Moreover, the Syrian Army and border guards inflicted
losses on a terrorist group that sought to infiltrate to Syria from Jordan in
Daraa countryside, and confiscated "Israeli"-made weapons.

SANA quoted a
source in the province as saying that ''The seized weapons included
"Israeli"-made Lau missiles, along with various weapons, munitions and modern
communication devices.''

The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) – Hebron branch, reported Sunday that the Israeli army kidnapped since the begging of this month 88 Palestinians in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, including 12 children, and 18 patients.

The PPS said that the Israeli army conducted numerous violations against the kidnapped Palestinians, including firing rounds of live ammunition in the course of their arrest, physically assaulted the residents, including beating them, kicking them, striking them with rifles and batons, an issue that led to serious injuries.

The soldiers broke into and violently searched dozens of homes causing extensive damage, forced entire families into one room while searching their property, and in many cases forced them out of their homes, physically and verbally abused the families while searching their property and kidnapping their sons.

The PPS said that the army kidnapped, in December, 12 children in direct violation of article #40 of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child of 1989, kidnapped 18 patients and wounded Palestinians who were tortured and abused during interrogation.

The army also kidnapped 28 high school and college students, and moved 30 Palestinians from Hebron to a number of interrogation camps.

The PPS also reported that the Ofer Israeli military court imposed fines that mounted to 36.000 NIS against the Palestinian detainees in December, and said that Israeli military courts “are practicing theft by imposing very high fines against the detainees and their families”.

Two years ago on this day, I wrote a column titled “On the Necessity of
Rebellion.” In those days, beautiful Tunisia was calling out to Egypt, the
motherland. The scent of jasmine was on the clothes of workers and peasants. Ben
Ali’s regime fell, soon followed by Mubarak’s. Arab chests heaved with a single
breath.

And then, suddenly, the moment was over. Libya rebelled and NATO intervened.
We began to struggle with our own contradictions. While we were immersed in our
existential navel gazing, American planes started bombing Arab lands. Gaddafi’s
regime fell, only to be replaced by another regime.

Gaddafi had isolated Libya from the rest of the world and plundered its
riches, while today Libya has opened up and democracy prevails – or so we
assume. Who hears news from Libya these days? Who knows who’s stealing what from
whom? Who knows anything about its regime, rulers, tribes, or resources? The
last thing we heard about was the US ambassador’s killing. To be fair, the US
was extremely tolerant and understanding on that occasion. Imagine if it had
occurred in Lebanon. They would have sent the Sixth Fleet and Detlev Mehlis
would have been appointed president.

The peaceful demonstrations in Bahrain (peaceful from one side because the
government’s forces have no problem using violence as long as it does not bother
Kim Kardashian) were accompanied by a new round of political hypocrisy.

The
revolt in Yemen began and with it came the systematic starving of the
revolution, followed by its hijacking at the hands of the US ambassador.

Syria ignited only to become a bleeding wound.

In Palestine, the chronic
wound, we saw settlements expand and more concessions offered.

We heard some
Syrian and Yemeni “revolutionaries” asking for help from the very people who
ravaged Palestine. We saw those who had grown up in the cradle of resistance
snuggling in the laps of the kings of oil.

And so today, more than at any other time, we need to intensify the rebellion
against those who betrayed the revolution in order to seize power
themselves.

We saw the "SON OF HAMAS" on his Third Birth conquering Gaza with a zionist visa, raising theflagoftheFrenchmandate.

Few Iranian missiles sent by Islamic Jihad to Tel Aviv changed the historical equation between the Palestinians and the Zionists, what would stronger and deadlier strategic missiles do if Assad decided to move the conflict to where it should be??
